Initial review: Hook is within DYK limits and is interesting (although should there be a hyperlink for the Indian lockdowns?). Article is long enough and new enough. Image is currently listed under a free license in Commons. No copyvios and the article seems well sourced. Will be good to go as soon as QPQ is satisfied. Would prefer if this DYK listed third party sources (found in the article) versus tweets. TJMSmith (talk) 04:47, 2 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

@TJMSmith: As you may have seen QPQ done and some tweeks to the article and hooks. I could offer an alt picture of her route map (as per article) if you thought it was eye-candy-ish. Victuallers (talk) 16:36, 2 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
